I attribute the little I know to my not having been ashamed to ask for information, and to my rule of conversing with all descriptions of men on those topics that form their own peculiar professions and pursuits.
In today’s wordsI owe what little I know to never being ashamed to ask questions, and to talking with people about the work they know best.
